You could learn how to create ebuilds. That will help

Does the linux version of truecrypt let you actually create an encrypted volume, or does it just permit you to mount one that you've created with Windows?
I compiled and installed truecrypt for linux on my slackware system, and I didn't see any options that permitted the user to create a hidden, encrypted volume.
There's also no GUI for linux that I can see; that would be all right, but I really am wondering if they've made the linux version fully functional yet. Maybe I'm way off base; I hope so, as I'd like to use truecrypt on my slackware and gentoo systems. |

Just boil some water, add some beef or chicken stock and some vegetables, put in truecrypt, and simmer for about an hour. Season to taste.

I would love to. It's just that at this point, I do not have the time/ability to read up on how to write them. I was just asking if someone that did have the time and knew how to would be kind enough to do this for us. |

when you get ready to learn how, don't bother reading that link because it doesnt tell you how to make ebuilds. It just tells you how to use ebuilds that others make. Handy, but a different subject. |

You missed all the links to dev guides on its final line

A copy of my post at the above referrenced bug:
Ok, so I figured I give it a shot and try to do this myself. So far I had to
edit the build script that was included with the source tarball from truecrypt.
I have attached that. Then I tried giving it a shot with this ebuild:
| Code: | # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: $
DESCRIPTION="Free open-source disk encryption software for Windows XP/2000/2003
and Linux"
HOMEPAGE="http://www.trucrypt.org/"
SRC_URI="http://www.truecrypt.org/downloads/truecrypt-${PV}-source-code.tar.gz"
LICENSE="CUSTOM"
SLOT="0"
KEYWORDS="~x86 ~amd64"
IUSE=""
src_compile() {
sh Linux/build.sh || die "build failed"
}
src_install() {
sh Linux/install.sh || die "install failed"
} |
Now when I try to emerge it, it fails with this:
| Code: | >>> Source unpacked.
Checking build requirements...
Building kernel module... Linux/build.sh: line 66: cd: Kernel: No such file or
directory
Error: Failed to build kernel module
!!! ERROR: app-crypt/truecrypt-4.0 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 14, Exitcode 1
!!! build failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.
|
EDIT: Ok now, changing line 66 of the build.sh script from "cd Kernel" to "cd /var/tmp/portage/truecrypt-4.0/work/truecrypt-4.0/Linux/Kernel" got me a little further but still fails with:
| Code: | >>> Source unpacked.
Checking build requirements...
Building kernel module... Makefile:530: /usr/src/linux-2.6.14-acid2/arch/amd64/Makefile: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux-2.6.14-acid2/arch/amd64/Makefile'. Stop.
make: *** [truecrypt] Error 2
Error: Failed to build kernel module
|
Not sure how to fix this in the build.sh script. Any ideas why it is trying "amd64" rather than "x86_64"? |

Ok more updates and more sloppy workarounds. I fixed that last error by symlinking an amd64 directory to the x86_64 dir. Now it is building successfully, but failing install and giving this:
| Code: | >>> Install truecrypt-4.0 into /var/tmp/portage/truecrypt-4.0/image/ category app-crypt
Checking installation requirements...
Linux/install.sh: line 72: ./var/tmp/portage/truecrypt-4.0/work/truecrypt-4.0/Linux/build.sh: No such file or directory
Error: Build failed - installation aborted
|
It was originally saying:
| Code: | | Linux/install.sh: line 72: ./build.sh: No such file or directory |
So I tried hardcoding the path to the dir as I did to fix the Kernel error in the build.sh, but then it still failed with the above message. Is anyone checking this thread anymore?
EDIT: Ok, I feel stupid. I had to change it to just "./Linux/build.sh" Now it goes through the install process but fails during testing truecrypt. The output is just this:
| Code: | >>> Source unpacked.
Checking build requirements...
Building kernel module... Done.
Building truecrypt... Done.
>>> Test phase [not enabled]: app-crypt/truecrypt-4.0
>>> Install truecrypt-4.0 into /var/tmp/portage/truecrypt-4.0/image/ category app-crypt

Building kernel module... Done.

has this anything to do with architecture or just coincidence about amd64?
other thing - you can really build a module to be loaded during boot? if so it's really great, i dind't expect such a funcionality ;) |

Has which part to do with amd64? My process or the failure testing?
I imagine you can build a module to be loaded at boot time. All I did in the ebuild was use the build.sh and install.sh scripts that were included with the source tarball. I figured it would still be able to easily reverse it if was all done through the ebuild. |

I meant following error:
| Code: |
Building kernel module... Makefile:530: /usr/src/linux-2.6.14-acid2/arch/amd64/Makefile: No such file or directory
|
so i was just curious whether u heve amd64.
Anyway, noticed in the bug report, that u got much further, great ;) |

| Yes, sorry. I am running amd64. Have you tried the ebuild yet? If not, would you try the latest one up on the bug report and see if it will compile for you. If so, does it merge completely or does it fail when testing the module during the install part? |

hmm I've tried to donwload ebuild and "source tarball with fixed build.sh", but seems there's wrong path - error u have had here somewhere earlier
| Code: |
Checking build requirements...
Building kernel module... Linux/build.sh: line 66: cd: Kernel: No such file or directory
Error: Failed to build kernel module
!!! ERROR: app-crypt/truecrypt-4.0 failed.
|
I'll try to re-pack with fixed files as you have info on how to do it in your later post.
Anyway at least I learnt so far how to use customs ebuilds ;)) |

so i guess i'm missing some crypting support in kernel ...

not very helpful ;D |

ok to fix first problem, i enabled following:
| Code: |
CONFIG_MD=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD is not set
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DM=y
CONFIG_DM_CRYPT=y

however still getting:

I am trying to get an ebuild together in the next days. At the moment I am still trying to find out why the compile fails. With the symlink X86 -> i386 or by doing it manually in a sandboxshell it works but that is not the way it is supposed to be.
If it does not work otherwise maybe an ebuild with a small patch to the original makefiles might do the trick. |

I created a preliminary ebuild for truecrypt. With an additional patch it compiles cleanly on my x86 system. If you want to have a look download the ebuild and the patch from bugzilla truecrypt-4.0.ebuild (New package).
To use the ebuild in an overlay you have to put the ebuild into /usr/local/portage/app-crypt/truecrypt, the patch into /usr/local/portage/app-crypt/truecrypt/files and the license (License.txt), which is included with truecrypt into /usr/local/portage/licenses/ with "truecrypt" as the filename.
Please post any problems you have found here.
